We selected EIGHTEEN students for 2018, just like last year. Each of these amazing young women have already been through a lot and overcome huge obstacles to get to where they are today, but they are not finished. They all have big goals for the future.
All 18 of them will now need to take the TOEFL exam (or an equivalent) to prove their English language abilities and qualify for college admissions. That has always proven to be a big hurdle but we're very hopeful for them.
The students need our encouragement and support to successfully navigate this journey to college. The TOEFL is just the first stage. Then there are the admissions applications, visa interviews, international flights, etc. Each of these steps can be overwhelming, and each has a pretty significant cost associated with it. That’s where we come in. Your support is critical in assisting these incredible young women as they navigate this challenging process.
Please make a donation today to make sure they are able to reach their fullest potential. You can donate to a specific student above, or to the general fund to the right. Don’t wait, it's easy to make a difference! Give these students the opportunity they deserve, and a chance to make a better life for themselves, their families, and their communities!

If you are interested in nominating/sponsoring a student you can download the latest information below and get acquainted with the process (which normally opens up in January).
